Webinar: Modern Tools and Strategies for Smarter Farming

By Costa Rica, Malaysia, Uganda, and Zimbabwe Flying Labs

In this webinar, Costa Rica, Malaysia, Uganda, and Zimbabwe Flying Labs showcase how drone technology and geospatial data are transforming agriculture across our different contexts. Drawing on experiences from cross-country projects, we explore practical applications, innovative tools, and business opportunities in agricultural drone use, including:

• Fish zoning and governance with UAVs - Mapping fish territories to support fish farmers.
• Soil suitability analysis - Using UAV imagery to assess soil conditions for optimal crop production.
• Precision agriculture with RGB & multispectral imaging - Understanding the value of high-quality imagery and vegetation indexes, with a live demo of PIX4D Fields for smarter farming decisions.
• Geospatial data for plantation agronomy - Leveraging UAV imagery for plant health assessments and strategic pathways for oil palm and fruit crop management in Malaysia and Indonesia.
• Starting an agricultural drone business - Insights on how to get started, including essential equipment and training needs.
